Make sure you get an OEM windshield. Probably pay extra but Ridgelines have an acoustic windshield and if you don’t specify your truck will be noticeably noisier.
Pros: acoustic, less noisy
Cons: noticeably noisier
Vehicle:
Honda Ridgeline
Ask your installer for Pilkington Glass. When my OE glass cracked I had Pilkington put in, that was over 10 years ago and I'm still running the same windshield with no cracks.
Pros: long-lasting, no cracks
Vehicle:
Jeep
Safelite replaced my windshield again with a Pilkington one and it works great, just gotta rotate the HUD a bit.
Pros: works great
Cons: rotate HUD a bit
Personally, I think the Kia windshields are on the thinner side. I have over 40K on my Carnival and no cracks whatsoever.

Cons: windshields thinner side

Owned 3 weeks, getting replaced Wednesday. I was parked in my garage for a week while I was out of town… came back to a crack (no kids, no pets, nothing from ceiling). Crack almost dead center starting from bottom, no chips or impact marks. Drove to windshield repair place 5 miles away, it had grown. The said it could still be fixed and couldn’t find any impact marks. Made appt for next day, by then crack had tripled in dive just sitting in the garage. Now being replaced with non-OEM glass since OEM glass sucks.
Cons: cracked without impact, crack grew rapidly, poor OEM quality
Vehicle:
Toyota Tundra

21 venza, i had it about a year, rock hit that spiderwebbed out. cost me about $1600 to replace (skipped insurance). Toyota had to special order it and claimed all the sensors need to be "recalibrated".
about 6 months later new crack, it's small but right smack dab in drivers line of site. It's smallish and hasn't grown so I've sucked it up and have lived with it for now.
If it's growing, i would suck up the replacement, the glass is shit and seems pretty common problem.
Cons: poor durability, prone to cracking
Vehicle:
Toyota Venza
2025 Pilot, had a hunk of rock penetrate the windshield coming off a cow trailer when I had something like 800 miles on it
